Game set. Eijun Sawamura, the pitcher of a novice junior high baseball team, meets with a bitter walk-off loss. For Sawamura, that became his last game in junior high, so he sets a new goal of going to the nationals in high school with his teammates. As he begins his hard quest on studying, a guest arrives unannounced. Her name is Rei Takashima, and she is the assistant director of the prestigious Seidou High School Baseball Team. Takashima invites Sawamura to Seidou after seeing his potential, but Sawamura's reply was far from what she had expected.
He wanted people to remember 
our school before it's demolished.
Er wollte, dass sich die Leute an unsere
Schule erinnern, bevor sie geschlossen wird.
Quería que la gente recordara nuestra 
escuela antes de que la cierren.
Quería que la gente recordara nuestro 
instituto antes de que lo cierren.
« Je veux que les gens 
se souviennent de notre école. »
Ele queria que as pessoas se lembrassem
 da nossa escola antes dela ser demolida.
